Program & Local Plan Design & Approval Information
- FY 2008 Local Plan Guide
The Local Plan Guide has been developed to assist Career and Technical Education Center directors and faculty to appropriately address all required components of their local plan proposals for the upcoming (FY08) academic year. Local Plans are reviewed to determine approval for disbursement of Perkins funds for the upcoming school year. Local Plans are due June 1st and monies can be disbursed July 1, after plans are approved.
- Principles of Program Design
This document provides information about how local plan proposals will be evaluated and may be used to assist in development of the local plan/sub-grants to the local plan.
- Program Cluster Assignments
- Approved Competency Lists
Competencies are derived from a collaboration between education and industry and reflect what a student should know and be able to do within a specified scope of a career field. Students demonstrate the acquisition of these competencies through an array of assessments occurring throughout the learning process including portfolio, performance, and structured observation assessments. NOTE: The competency lists are currently under revision and unavailable.
- Classification of Instructional Program (CIP) Codes (PDF)

CIP codes correspond to specific competency lists developed for career-oriented instructional programs provided in the State of Vermont. These are currently being used to organize programs having diverse names, but addressing the same competencies for students. These correspond more closely to post-secondary than secondary programs. It is expected that these codes will be replaced in the coming year by a more secondary-oriented career-cluster based, federally developed system of codes.

Cooperative Education Work-based Learning (Updated 12/5/07)
Cooperative education fosters the theory of experiential learning. Cooperative education programs establish and maintain strong collaborations (partnerships, associations) between secondary education and key members of industry. In Vermont, cooperative education is composed of four work-based learning categories: job shadow, career work experience, cooperative technical education and student apprenticeship. Use this link to view information designed to help cooperative education coordinators, students and parents get a better grasp on all that is involved with successfully establishing a cooperative education program.
